Startupbootcamp FinTech, the leading accelerator focused on financial innovation, has announced the 10 international startups selected to join its Singapore program. The finalists, which include teams from across Asia-Pacific have been chosen by a panel of industry experts, including representatives from Startupbootcamp FinTech’s partners.
SETScope is a platform that evaluates stock using multiple metrics like a human expert. Founder & CEO Tanin Sammanee first attended Startupbootcamp’s Bangkok FastTrack in 2015 where he gained mentorship from local finance and startup executives. After follow up interviews with Startupbootcamp, SETScope was shortlisted as one of the top 20 startup in the region and was invited to attend the Selection Days in Singapore.
After 4 days of workshops, pitch training, partner & mentor one-on-ones, the top 10 startups were selected. They will join the ever-expanding list of successful startups that have been through the Startupbootcamp programs globally.
